I suspect that the Deputy may be referring to her questions 141 and 142 of 22 June 2022. Question No. 400 of 25 January 2022 was a question to the Minister for Social Protection on a different matter.

I understand the Deputy's question refers to the stopping distances used in the "Rules of Road" published and produced by the Road Safety Authority (RSA), and whether any changes are envisaged.

As this is a matter for the RSA, I am referring the Deputy's question to the Authority for direct reply. If a reply has not been received within 10 working days, the Deputy should contact my office.

A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 51
